| WHAT THE- This episode was much better than the first episode, it was predictable in several ways but enjoyable nonetheless. I love how they showcased original character designers Redjuice's sci-fi weapons, they look amazing in animation just as his illustrations are depicted. The fan-service doesn't sit well with me even though I don't fan-service in general, not suitable. This is showing a lot of promise than Sacred Seven, I'm watch the next episode. |

And seriously I hope Rin somehow reveals that she likes Haruto I just have a feeling :] I still think I would have preferred Asuka over Eba though... I raged so hard when Eba broke 'em up :[ Edit: We should turn this into a KNIM thread haha |

I don't like Rin too much, she's always trolling Haruto's relationships. And Asuka (the short-black-haired girl right?) was such a good match for him! I can't beleive they broke up.. But Eba and Haruto also feels nice.. Hm... Decisions, decisions... |

Just lol. KNIM used to be my favorite "romance" before I was introduced to Spice and Wolf. i wonder how the two will compare... I don't think anybody can beat Horo/Holo, gimme a rec if you know someone who's clever, badass, flirty, and drop-dead adorable. I practically died in the OVA: Horo: "Why am I so-" *stops tail from wagging as Lawrence's footsteps get closer* Me: *Collapses from mere memory* |

I have both anime seasons, too bad there is no third. Also, in my post, I meant "I don't like Rin too much", not Eba. Eba and Asuka were amazing, his neighbor is also really cute. |

I watched it on Youtube. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cvdOgJeuZUI IMO: Knim has too much http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/MomentKiller It's good at some parts but recently it's been turning me off. So damn FRUSTRATING. I mean seriously Haruto's sister totally did it when he and Asuka were SO DAMN CLOSE to sealing the deal. RAGE OMGG!!! People keep busting into the plot. I dunno Seo Kouji. Can you please just end it soon... and in a way that'll leave me satisfied :[ You're stabbing my heart with frustrated impatience :[ |
|
| Well that was pretty good. Though I don't really like the main character. Can't say I like the songs in this anime either. They're all those dull types of songs with little to no rhythm. Oh and the animation feels kind of inconsistent to me. They should have just dropped the animation quality on the better scenes and added that to the scenes they didn't care about. Would've looked better. |
 |
| I'm guessing that Daryl wasn't killed off already, since that -never- happens in anime. I did like the fact that the main character (forgot his name already lol) didn't change his attitude, and just join the rebels. But yeah so far all style, and no real substance. Hope they can make this stand out in a genre that's filled with such cliches and average content. |
 |
| I felt like episode 2 picked up the fact that he turned down the offer makes it seem refreshed glad to have first heard about it @ New York's Comic con otherwise i would be missin out on such anime with good potential XD |
| I could care less if this show turns into some random school harem man. As long as I get to see Inori being adorable, I'm fine with that. Inori: "Honto da yo" HHNNG >_ |
  |
| Lol at that review complaining about people who gave bad rating for just 1 episode , then he rate it 10 , people can be so stupid. |
| I was pretty annoyed by the fanservice in this episode, it just totally caught me off guard and didn't really fit the episode. Don't get me wrong I don't mind fanservice or anything, heck I've watched enough ecchi anime but it just seemed so out of place. Which is why it annoyed me pretty much. Also I don't really understand all the hate on Shu I don't think he's any more wimpy than any of us would be. However I kinda dislike Inori and Gai as of yet. Inori just seems pretty useless at the moment and I just don't like Gai. He was a total badass in ep 1 but I just couldn't like him in this episode, to me he seemed like a total Zero rip-off. Plus I am getting the feeling that he thinks of himself as a total badass just like most of the viewers do. |

prismheart said: Just stare at her butt, Shu. I liked how he didn't accept Gai's offer, kind of refreshing since it was not expected. I did face palm but i guess it was an interest choice. The annoying thing now is he is going to fidgit about the situation for a few episodes only to end up becoming one of them. Well, i still am really liking this show a lot. It has enough energy to get me pumped up and that is pretty rare. At this point unfortunately it doesn't matter if it is good or not but it sure has caught my attention. |

Don't get me wrong I don't mind fanservice or anything, heck I've watched enough ecchi anime but it just seemed so out of place. Which is why it annoyed me pretty much. I feel the exact same. If it did the fan service more tastefully, or didn't have it at all, it'd be almost as good as fate zero. Saying: If FZ was a 10, it would be a 9.8. Currently, if I used the same analogy, if FZ was a 10, GC would be 9, or 8.5. I don't mind fan service, but when it's done like this, it doesn't work. It's what we get for having the director who worked on HOTD. |

Yumekichi11 said: BRSxIgnition said: Yeah there is that too. I forgot. It was pretty mindless in HOTD after all.It's what we get for having the director who worked on HOTD. Yeah.. Hopefully he either: Tones it down later on. Makes it less painfully obvious. or Makes the plot good enough to match/make us forget it's even there. I mean, I like the girls, Inori, Ayase and Tsugumi are cute as heck, but.. It's just too in-your-face... |

invazn said: I'm guessing that Daryl wasn't killed off already, since that -never- happens in anime. why kill off Daryl? Okay yeah he's a psychopathic manchild but isn't he just adorable? Seriously, I would love to see more of him in the future. Crazies ftw. And *sigh*, the fanservice is (yet again) a mood dissonant. Imagine that. Oh well, I'lls till see how it goes. And for Daryl of course. |
| i guess they did not forget to put fan service on it. Can't blame them since its also a business and at the moment people back in japan loves it (i mean the fan service ofcourse not all). Just like in marketing not all audience are considered. But i find this show good in term's of the Power given when you get to have the void genome but i wonder how it will end up since theres only 3 perfect genome's minus the 1 stolen and used and he went back to class? did he know his probably a wanted person now by the government since the time he took out the first weapon "sword" he was all over the screen's of the White Coat's HQ. xD |

Inori: "Honto da yo" HHNNG >_ I've gotta say I didn't see that coming, where he refuses Gai I mean. Lol can't wait for next ep, they actually ended up sending Inori to his class. And I wonder if there's more to that genome, why didn't Gai just take that earlier? Hopefully more will be explained about it later. |

| ooooooh please ! I was enjoying this show to the max until the last minute of the episode ! don't tell me that this will turn to another cheap school drama !! >_< anyway this show reminds me heavily of code geass in too many ways but I hate that shu guy .. he's worse than emiya shirou LoOoL |
| Still good. |
 » Escapism. |
| I enjoyed this episode much better than the first episode :D.. Don't know why .. I guess it's because of Inori with that cute innocent face of hers in that last scene :D.. So moving on, that weapon of his is, I wonder how many forms it has? .. I thought it was a gun when he pulled it out but I was surprised when it became a barrier reflecting all those projectiles. Anyway, 4.5/5 for this episode.. I'll still watch this even if some things are cliched. P.S. I don't care what anyone says.. but I love the songs that are here :D.. |
 |
| Why theres no shuu past ? aim really looking forward to see tha pink haired girl (who looks like luka) again |
 |
| i think i love ED more than OP inori was so cute i still don't understand how gai know what weapon inside Daryl i just want to see more inori |
 |
| wow his power is kinda imba. |
| interesting episode wonder what will happen next! btw love the OP and ED. |
| According to the profiles here on MAL Shu is 17. Gai is also 17. That's just impossible! I blame you, Yuuki Kaji. Yes, I do. You make every character you voice sound so weak. -_- Oh well, just another thing in this show that confuses me. |
    |
| Not for sure I liked the change in atmosphere. It seemed to steer away from all the psychological connotations that dominated the first episode in favor of a more casual approach to the ongoing political theme. Don't get me wrong. I loved the action and the second half was all sorts of awesome, but I'm glad Shu didn't accept his hand (a return to character development hopefully). |
| I liked this episode a bit more than the previous one, although the story and the MC is could still use some polishing. Will continue watching though, has potential. 4/5. And of course: DAT INTERFACE ACTIVATING. |
| I hope Shu's power isn't like Sacred seven's overpowered "ask for anything and you get it" Daryl Yan is a boss an I hope he gets revenge. Iori needs to get raped because she dresses like a slut. I want Daryl Yan to transfer to the school and rape all the chicks. |

| This is the worst anime of the year. |
| I like it wish they would omit the echhi ! ><" |

bladebreaker said: I like it wish they would omit the echhi! What ecchi? There was a butt jiggle, tit bounce, and other instances where the differences between being a male and female were visually commented on.(Which is how the differences between the sexes work). All that took up what, 15seconds? 10? A few seconds out of 25 minute episode. You're just fucking over-reacting because this show is not going for a TV-Y7 rating. |

Call it what you like.(Although calling it fanservice negatively instantly means you are not the fan such content was included for.) What I said still stands. There was minimum amounts of sexual content in episode two and the show is not trying to get a TV-Y7 rating. Instead of wishing such content away you could just blink slower whenever a female is shown. |
|
| Going off track here...but has anyone noticed that the girl focused on in the OP looks very much like Shu. Maybe she's his sister? |
And what if all love is an act of bravery? Could you look me in the eye and say that you are not afraid?  |
Reaper71 said: Going off track here...but has anyone noticed that the girl focused on in the OP looks very much like Shu. Maybe she's his sister? You mean the one that goes to his school? The brown haired one? They look similar, but I don't think she's his sister. |

Blink slower, nice one :] Anywhoo, as noted in the first few pages of the thread (topic extensively flushed out)... nvm there's nothing to add that hasn't been said already in those pages. What I will say though is that the acceptable amount of "fanservice" differs from person to person. For me, it isn't an issue of how much as a matter of the placement. |
|
| Well as of episode two it seems that the anime production team is establishing that the "fanservice" will be used whenever those two female soldiers take action or take it to mean that those two female soldiers sexify their actions. That's probably where fanservice will be continually placed in this series. |

| Fail of the season! My face when Iori transfered to Shu's class  |
| The photo loses some of it's effect considering the series it's from is about a group of kids all going to the same school. |
